The end of the world begins with the king

Chapter 543 Closing Ceremony
Outside the School of Political Science, not many people gathered at the moment.

What is extremely important to literati is not so important to ordinary people, so there are not many people watching the excitement.

Inside the second gate of the School of Lizheng is the core area of ​​the school, and it is also the courtyard with the largest building area.

At this moment, in the center of the compound, the students who are about to graduate stand in six rows, and the rescuers with the best grades stand at the head, waiting for the ceremony to begin.

On both sides of them are sixty newly enrolled students. The present of Huang Yuanqing and others is their future.

As the two people with the best grades, Yu Chengyao and Huang Yuanqing stood in the middle. Huang Yuanqing was as calm as usual, but Yu Chengyao had uncontrollable excitement in his eyes.

"The time...it should be almost here!" Yu Chengyao whispered.

"En!" Huang Yuanqing responded, but didn't say much.

At this moment, footsteps came from the corridor next to it, and there were quite a few people who heard the sound.

At the same time, [-] musicians located on the south side of the compound played a welcoming tune.

In the corridor, Zhao Yanxun walked in the front, his expression looked calm.

In fact, he has this expression almost all the time in front of outsiders, making it impossible to see the depth, joy or anger.

On the two sides behind Zhao Yanxun, there are two palace chiefs, Shi, and behind them are the officials and professors of Ji Shan Institute, including Ji Shanzheng and Liu Qingshan, the head of Lizheng School.

"Your Highness, this way please!"

Under the guidance of the ceremonial officer, Zhao Yanxun came to the north side of the school to take his seat, where his throne had already been set.

"Your Highness, please take a seat!"

After Zhao Yanxun took his seat, the rest of the officials were separated on both sides. Their positions were three steps higher, so they could clearly see the situation of the students.

At the moment when Zhao Yanxun took his seat, the musicians stopped playing and waited for the next order from the leader.

"See Your Highness!"

More than a hundred people bowed down in unison, and all of them were excited, and the voices they shouted were deafening.

Looking at the more than a hundred new and old students in front of him, these people are full of energy, which makes Zhao Yanxun very satisfied.

"Free gift!"

"Thank you, Your Highness!"

When everyone got up, the ceremony officer saluted and then Chen Zuo said, "Your Highness, the auspicious time has come, is the ceremony starting?"

"start!"

After Zhao Yanxun finished speaking, the musicians played a new piece of music, the tune was as bright as the mood of the students.

I saw Liu Qingshan took out a document, walked to the front of the steps and saluted Zhao Yanxun, then turned to face the students.

I saw him spread out and read: "On the first day of November in the 25th year of Tai'an, there are sixty students including Huang Yuanqing, Yu Chengyao, and Zhao Youshun. month, after passing the examinations, he is allowed to graduate!"

These students have studied in Lizheng School for nine months, whether it is long or short.

After all, it is the first batch of schools to run, and the teaching methods need to be explored to adapt to the current end-time situation. The teaching time of the next batch will definitely be shortened.

Putting away the paperwork, Liu Qingshan continued: "According to His Highness's order, I will award the brochures to all students who have graduated!"

On the left and right sides, an official came out with a tray, on which brocade-covered brochures were stacked neatly.

The so-called graduation brochure, to put it bluntly, is the graduation certificate, which Zhao Yanxun proposed to add.

"Conferment..."

When Liu Qingshan yelled this sentence, two school professors came out, came to the steps and began to roll their names.

The students whose names were called immediately walked out of the train and were awarded "diploma certificates".

After the last few students got their certificates and returned to the team, they all paid respects under the instructions of the ritual officer.

"Thank you Your Highness!"

On the throne, Zhao Yanxun said calmly: "Excuse me!"

After everyone got up, Liu Changqing and several professors retreated to the back, only to see Zuo Changshi Zhou Chengping coming out.

As soon as they saw him walk out, the students became nervous. They knew that what they would announce next was their personnel arrangements.

"According to His Royal Highness's decree, all graduates can be appointed. Next... I will announce the position arrangement for you!"

Before Zhou Chengping announced, only three people knew about this personnel arrangement, besides him, Zhao Yanxun and You Chang Shi Chengwenguang.

I saw Zhou Chengping spread out the Chinese book in his hand, glanced at the young faces, and then read aloud: "Great King's Edict..."

Since the position was conferred, it was no longer in the name of the School of Lizheng, but by Zhao Yanxun himself, so it had to be promulgated by edict.

Hearing the three words Zhou Chengping, all the students bowed down one after another, including those new students.

"I heard it from afar, those who govern the people must be virtuous, those who govern the country must be talented, and those who have both ability and virtue... can be officials!"

"You are all talents that can be made. The lonely king set up a political school to teach you the virtues of the sages and teach you the talents of government..."

"For several months, you have devoted yourself to studying, and now you have achieved success in your studies. It can be said that you have gathered talents and integrity, and you can be awarded a job..."

Seeing that it was time to talk about the main text, most of them became nervous, as this related to their future fate.

"After being reported by various institutes and prefectures and counties, it will be drawn up by the Shi Si, the chief of the palace, and submitted to His Royal Highness for approval, and will be awarded to the scribe of Hu Min Dianyi Institute..."

"Give He Yang Zhongli the clerk of the Salt Mansion..."

"Give Tian Jiacheng a Nanfeng county clerk..."

Next, Zhou Chengping read out a long list of appointments.

There are the "central" departments of the Changshi Division's various offices, there are also government-level yamen, and of course there are the most grassroots at the county level.

After knowing the result, some people were happy and some were sad, but in the end they could only accept it all.

But when Zhou Taiping put away the imperial edict, new doubts arose in the hearts of the people. The top six leaders did not get their posts.

This is obviously abnormal, but at this moment, everyone can only hide their doubts in their hearts and guess what the possible outcome will be.

After receiving the edict, Zhou Chengping saluted Zhao Yanxun, and then retreated to his seat.

"Everyone... You were still students just now, but now you are officials of the palace!"

Finally, Zhao Yanxun, who had been doing nothing all this time, started his speech.

Although he spoke casually, everyone listened attentively.

"I still remember that in February this year, when you were first called into the school, the king told you that I hope you will study well in the school and serve the palace after you finish your studies..."

"Now, you have already completed your studies, and you have lived up to this king's high expectations. Gu is very pleased!"

These words are an affirmation to the students and an encouragement to the new students.

"But from today onwards, you are no longer students, but officials who govern the country and ensure the safety of the people, and you have taken responsibility on your shoulders!"

"I hope that after leaving the school, you can make political achievements and prove your ability to Gu..."

Speaking of this, Zhao Yanxun said in a very solemn tone: "Perhaps you will feel that you are just a small official, and some people will go to remote prefectures and counties, thinking... that you are buried!"

I have to say that this sentence touched the hearts of many people.

But Zhao Yanxun continued: "!"

"The ancients said that if you don't accumulate a few steps, you can't reach a thousand miles. The world is vast. As long as you are loyal to the king's affairs and do your best, you will surely achieve great achievements!"

"At that time, this king will not be stingy with awarding rewards. It is not impossible for Qing and others to be in the palace and be role models for underachievers!"

I have to say that these words played a very good motivating role.

To be honest, although these people go to the grassroots to be officials, but now that the palace is in a period of rapid development, there are a lot of vacancies for officials.

As long as you can achieve results, it is really not too difficult to get promoted.

So much so that at this moment, most of the students have reversed their mentality, thinking about going to the post to do a big job.

It can be said that Zhao Yanxun's skill in painting cakes has become more and more familiar.
